Backlash & Vinegar - KT Tunstall

I carved a hole in the sun

Black edges

Easy to get lost in there

Easy to get lost out there

I found myself underweight

Trying to fill the gaps

To stop the draft

Where the hope escapes

I gotta hold myself better

Fold out just like a map of a mountain

Be the upsetter

And let these bridges burn

So take it back

That I’m lacking anything

Saying it might make it easier

But it’s backlash and vinegar

I’m just a being, being

Wondering if that’s even feasible

And if it’s unreasonable

To feel

I starved my soul of the one

Thing that now I see

I should’ve had

I just repeated

'Til I went mad

And this body knows

What this body never shows

Just leave it to guessing

I should write you a letter

Hold out up until the final chapter

Be the successor

And watch this spectre burn

So take it back

That I’m lacking anything

Saying it might make it easier

But it’s backlash and vinegar

I’m just a being, being

Wondering if that’s even feasible

And if it’s unreasonable

To feel
